Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Myself, my mum, and others that knew Matthew, a close friend of ours are running the BUPA 10K in may, to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.

On the 18th of January this year, we lost a close friend Matthew Burgess, to suspected sudden adult death syndrome, he had just turned 20. These events have inspired us to raise money, in the hope that at least one life could be saved through research into the possible genetic disorder that took Matthew.

Matthew was an amazing friend to many, who will be missed greatly by everyone who knew him. 

Thank you again for your time and donations, Matthew would be incredibely proud.
